LEVELING SYSTEM
Controls for the leveling system are located in the
driver's compartment. A detailed operating and
maintenance guide is included in your Owner's
Information Package. Read all instructions for
this system carefully before operating the system.
WARNING
!
The leveling system is designed as a leveling system
only. Do not use the system as a jack or with a jack.
Do not attempt to raise the tires off the ground. The
system should be used to raise the recreational vehi-
cle to the lowest level position possible.
For operation of the leveling system the follow-
ing is required:
• Park the RV on level ground
• Ignition on, engine running
• Transmission in park
• Parking brake set to the engaged position
• Battery Voltage must be 13.0 Vdc or
greater
POWER ENTRY STEP
The power entry step is controlled by a magnetic
entry door position switch, the engine ignition
switch and by an override switch located near
the entry door. Power for the entry step is sup-
plied by the chassis battery (or batteries). The
battery system must be connected (battery dis-
connect in the "ON" position) for the entry step
to operate.
The entry step will typically extend and retract
with the opening and closing of the entry door as
controlled by the entry door position switch
(function is automatic). Activating the override
switch will move the entry step to the extended
position, and it will stay there regardless of
whether the door is open or closed. Regardless
of the override switch position, activation of the
ignition key with the entry door closed will
retract the entry step. This helps to prevent inad-
vertently driving off with the entry step

The main entry door uses a latching system sim-

the primary latch. This will ensure that the door
is fully closed. When traveling, always lock
the deadbolt.
The screen door may be separated from the main
entry door by depressing the catch or releasing the
magnet.
